In-house counsel grapple with employment discrimination claims every day. But one of the most unusual cases in memory involves a man whose job was to help victims of employment discrimination. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports today that a judge found that the man had been a victim of racial discrimination himself:

“Late last month, a federal judge in Milwaukee ruled that Kimble, who is African-American, had been improperly denied years of raises because of his race and gender. The judge found the state Department of Workforce Development and the former administrator of the Equal Rights Division, J. Sheehan Donoghue, guilty of discrimination.”
